Zusammenfassung

Leitlinien zum kontrastverstärkten Ultraschall wurden von der EFSUMB („European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology”) publiziert, die sich mit nicht-hepatischen Indikationen beschäftigen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die vielfältigen Anwendungsmöglichkeiten des endoskopischen Ultraschall für die Abklärung von soliden und zystischen Pankreasneoplasien erläutert

Abstract

The European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB) recently introduced guidelines on the use of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). The so-called non-liver guidelines included clinical recommendations on the use of CEUS in pancreatic diseases. This article focuses on the application of endoscopic ultrasound in the evaluation of pancreatic neoplasia to highlight the importance of CEUS in daily routine.
